Castlevania II - Simon's Quest : fourth part, go to Bodley mansion
Map of the world of Castlevania 2

You leave Brahm's house in possession of Dracula's eye. Going left, you can go get the diamond. It is not essential but it is a rather powerful and original object. If you go there, remember that to jump from stone to stone, the most important is not the height but although it is rising when you jump, it will project you much higher. A stone is very close to the next, so you can jump when it goes down. Overall, the timing is so that you can not stop if you get started at the right time. Then retrace your steps and go take the raft of the smuggler. Take a few steps to the right to lose sight of the lake then go back to the left and talk again to the smuggler but this time without the heart.

Here are three passwords :

Then walk west to quickly reach the city of Alba. Climb the first staircase and jump to the left to talk to the man in gray who will give you a red crystal in exchange for the blue crystal. Exit the village on the left. The slims can be a little painful. Personally, I calm them with the sacred flame. It's a nice barrier in front of them.

Freddie and the skeletons will surely be less worrying and you will reach the village of Ondol straight ahead. Note that if you decide to go down the stairs you will find the silk bag that allows you to carry more garlic / laurels (no need for this crap). If you want, you will need to put a clove of garlic at the end of the graveyard.

Bag or not bag, I advise you to buy the morning star once in the city of Ondol, it is a very powerful whip that can be improved thereafter.

Then exit the city on the left and walk to the cliff of Déborah. It will then be necessary to equip the newly acquired red crystal and kneel at the foot of the Debrah's Cliff. A whirlwind then arrives and takes you right in front of Bodley Manor.

Enter the manoir Bodley for the rest of the walkthrough.

----------------------

Little digression. An obvious tribute to the tornado that leads you to Boldey is rendered in "Dust: an Elysian tail". Indeed, in this one, in the mountains of blackmoor, completely in the West, one finds himself at the bottom of a cliff on which is drawn an hourglass (one is more friendly with the players today). If Dust is equipped with the Red Crystal and he drops a few moments, a whirlwind will come to get him to take him to the other side (where he can deliver Braid but that's another story). For information, Dust is an excelingly action-packed platform game (beat-them up) RPG. Very beautiful and colorful, I recommend it (I finished it 100%). Braid him, it's platform with reflection. Braid plays with time. With backtracks and other acceleration, he will be able to do a lot of things improbable. Full of excellent puzzle and again, a very nice artistic achievement. I did not hang the mini story but test the game, it is short but super smart.
